Strategic foresight

This face-to-face course is designed to help you and your organization gain strategic agility and resilience.

What you'll learn
Participants will learn the best practices of leading forward-thinking organizations. They will be trained in how to apply practical foresight gaining hands-on experience of using our comprehensive system. They will be introduced to best practice tools to undertake collaborative foresight, strategic thinking and change management back in their day-to-day work environment during a one or two day course.

The two-day course follows the same agenda but allows for more exercises and hands-on experience for those wishing to practice strategic foresight in their work or to conduct an in-depth strategic foresight exercise on a burning topic of their choice.

Location
Participants can either take a Master-class or Workshop at our head office in a beautiful area of Staffordshire, UK, at their own offices, other locations anywhere in the world or virtually in one or more ninety minute sessions.

What they say"Very informative and relaxed approach. A good introduction to a very large field, website access etc will be invaluable. I know where to start – now have to go and do it but take comfort in the extensive website and associated materials that are available These events are always useful in that they have a small number of participants which encourages discussion. Mike is very willing to discuss specific areas in more detail, which was useful. Useful guidance on techniques & methods for going about horizon scanning in a systematic and measurable way. I enjoyed the stories /examples and found it extremely interesting." Peter Black, DAFF, Australia.
